I got this recipe from my friend, Sharon Dudley, who used to make bread for everyone.
After she passed away, I decided that making bread would become part of my ministry. “Nothin’ says lovin’ like something from the oven!”
Ingredients
- 2 ¾ Cups Self-rising flour, sifted
- 3 Tbs Sugar
- 1 (12 ounce) can Beer (I use Natural Light)
- ⅓ Cup Butter, melted
Instructions
- Generously grease the bread pan with some of the melted butter or margarine.
- Mix together flour and sugar. Add beer, and stir until all ingredients are moist. Pour batter into buttered pan.
- Pour the rest of the melted butter over the top of the uncooked mixture. Just sort of “drizzle” it over the top. (I try to let it cool a little before pouring it over the batter. If it is too hot, it might stop the bread from rising.)
- Let the batter sit about 10 minutes before putting it in the oven, and it will rise some.
- Bake at 350° for approximately 45 minutes or until it is golden brown. If you have any butter left, pour over the sides of the bread after it is done. This also makes really good toast!.
